Maybe not. Like you said, kids would have no hits on RCMP or FBI checks. That it takes the same amount of time as adults indicates applications just sitting in a queue and only being looked at 2-3 weeks before adjudication.
I guess $50 a pop is not nearly enough to hire an army of processors. Or maybe it is.
